Alpha/Dictionary Challenge 2016

Good Morning all,Welcome to the first day of our Challenge for 2016, the.....Alpha/Dictionary ChallengeI think, judging by your comments thata lot of you remember this from before, in 2013. It was very popular then and hope itwill be again. Unfortunately if you look backat the old posts, you will find many of the originalpictures are missing and I can't get them back. So, to recap, we will go through the whole alphabet, one letter every two weeks.To keep you on your toes, we will not be completing the challenge in alphabetical order. Ha ha!!The DT will be playing along so I will bring you some pictures from them too.If you want to have a go, then this is what you'll need to do......If you want to use a Dictionary, then picksomething beginning with the letter of the weekand start playing!Or you can use Tags/ATC's but they must showthe letter or word and the dictionary definition.Please keep to whatever you choose for the whole Challenge, so no switching from Tag to Dictionary, to ATC etc, etcYou could also make pages for your Art Journalif you prefer.A new letter will be posted every two weeksand you can enter via the usual link orsend your pics to me atjanecraftbarn@gmail.com and I will add them for you.Mr Random Generator will be called in tochoose the winner every fortnight and theywill receive a £10 prize voucher.You can enter as many times and for ourfollowers outside the UK, please feel freeto use your own language, it doesn't have to bein English!So, let's get started.....Your first letter is going to beB

pick something beginning with the letterB and start playing along.Just remember please that you MUSTinclude the letter/word AND the definition.The link will be open for two weeks,closing at midnight on Sunday 24thJanuary.

I hadn't realised how many charity shops were around on my high street (6 and counting...) but dictionaries... zilch, zero, none so I think I'm going with plan B, which coincidentally is this first fortnight theme!

Hmmmm, I think it probably best to stick to the fortnight but if you are going to be away, poorly etc, send your pic to my email and I will add them on to the post. I don't want anyone to miss out!!Jane x

Oh I am so lovin the idea of this. I started a dictionary on a Facebook group ages ago but not many were joining in so I lost interest. Can't wait to start again. Claire is right about the holidays - I'm hoping to go away for 3 weeks in November so would miss quite a lot which is a shame if you have particiapated all year. I wonder if it would be possible to be able to email the entry in advance to you. Annie xxx

Jane, I have included my word with it's definition on my entries but I haven't got a letter B on them. Do I need a B or is the word with definition OK? I thought 'Just remember please that you MUST include the letter/word AND the definition' meant the word beginning with the letter and it's definition. Let me know please. Hugz
